Here is another thing cut in Washington: comedy.The White House correspondent Association said on Saturday that it had canceled a scheduled performance by Amber Ruffin, the actress and the host of speech, at the Annual Black-Tie dinner on April 26.A monologue from a characterized comic is usually the focus of journalists’ soiree. Unforgettable performances by Stephen Colbert and Seth Meyers, among other things, have become a axis of political satire.However, in the midst of rocky relations between President Trump and the White House Press Corps – and numerous efforts by the administration to undermine the media – the correspondent team…

Trump’s administration announced on Thursday that it is firing 10,000 employees in the Department of Health and Human Services as part of a widespread reorganization that reflects the priorities of Health Secretary Robert F.

When Christina Cassotis, chief executive of Pittsburgh International Airport, heard about the power failure forced by London Airport to suspend businesses last week, thought of workers trying to manage the chaos.But when a break beats closer to the house, it has a more restrained answer: maintain calm and continue.For almost four years, its airport has been powered by a mixture of on -the -spot natural gas generator and solar panels.

The official number of deaths of the earthquake that destroyed the central Myanmar exceeded 1,600 people, the country’s military leaders said on Saturday, as desperate rescue workers ran to find survivors and began to fight with a monumental catastrophe.The strong earthquake hit Friday near Mandalay, the country’s second largest city, and the volunteer emergency workers there combed the ruins of apartments, monasteries and mosques, searching for someone who left alive. Seismic directions and roads caused the road buck. Employees had no equipment, such as excavators and workers, as the repressive military authorities kept a careful eye.”There are at least a…

At the University of Pennsylvania last fall, someone pushed the red color into a statue honoring Benjamin Franklin, the founder of the school.Within a few hours, campus workers were washed. But the university was willing to find the culprit.A super-Palestinian team had taken responsibility in the social media.

Campus police received an investigation order for T-Mobile’s call files for the phone and later a warrant for the seizure of the phone itself.On October 18 at 6am, the armed…

Gai Gherardi, a Los Angeles optician, who with a partner attracted a celebrity clientele, pioneering the idea that glasses should not be dull, but could be fashion statements of individuality, died on March 16 at her home in Hollywood. He was 78 years old.Her sister, Heather Gherardi, said the cause was bile cancer, which she learned she had last month.”Glasses offer spontaneity,” Ms. Gherardi told New York Times in 1993. “They offer many changes to your face, it’s a big accessory, a big support.””Contacts are rigid. They are not fun,” he added. “You may see better on them. But you…
